Is this the right workflow for you?

Clinicians treating CTS

Best for providers who need consistent documentation of Phalen’s, Tinel’s, and sensory deficits.

SOAP note requirements

You will find the specific objective findings and assessment patterns needed for a high-fidelity CTS note.

From encounter to draft

Aduvera turns your recorded patient visit into a structured SOAP note, eliminating manual data entry.

High-Fidelity CTS Documentation

Move beyond generic templates with a review-first AI workflow.

Specific Orthopedic Findings

The AI captures mentioned provocative tests like Phalen’s or Durkan’s and places them directly in the Objective section.

Transcript-Backed Citations

Verify every claim of numbness or weakness by clicking the citation to see the exact segment of the encounter.

EHR-Ready Output

Generate a structured SOAP note that you can review and copy/paste directly into your patient's chart.

Draft Your Next CTS Note

Turn a live patient encounter into a structured SOAP note in three steps.

1

Record the Visit

Use the web app to record the encounter, including the patient's history of paresthesia and your physical exam.

2

Review the AI Draft

Check the generated SOAP note for accuracy, ensuring the Subjective and Objective sections align with your findings.

3

Finalize and Paste

Refine the assessment and plan, then copy the finalized note into your EHR system.

Clinical Standards for Carpal Tunnel Documentation

A strong Carpal Tunnel SOAP note must clearly differentiate between the median and ulnar nerve distributions. The Subjective section should detail the onset of nocturnal paresthesia and specific triggers, while the Objective section requires documented results of provocative maneuvers, such as Tinel's sign at the wrist and Phalen's test, alongside any observed thenar atrophy. The Assessment should correlate these findings to support the diagnosis of CTS over other compressive neuropathies.

Aduvera replaces the need to manually transcribe these specific findings from memory. By recording the encounter, the AI identifies the clinical markers of CTS mentioned during the exam and organizes them into the SOAP format. This allows the clinician to focus on verifying the fidelity of the note through transcript-backed citations rather than typing repetitive orthopedic exam findings for every patient.

Carpal Tunnel Documentation FAQs

Transcript-backed documentation, clinician review, and EHR-ready note output are built into every workflow.

Can I use the SOAP format for CTS in Aduvera?

Yes, Aduvera specifically supports the SOAP note style and can be used to draft carpal tunnel documentation from your recorded visits.

How does the AI handle specific tests like Phalen's or Tinel's?

The AI identifies these tests during the encounter and places the results in the Objective section of your SOAP note for your review.

Can I verify that the AI didn't hallucinate a physical finding?

Yes, every segment of the note is backed by a citation that links directly to the source context in the encounter transcript.

Does the tool support other note styles for hand clinics?

Beyond SOAP, the app supports other structured styles such as H&P and APSO to fit different clinical workflows.
